Hamish,

I first became aware of you when I visited the original Utilikilts store for the first time and saw your photo on the wall there. Your style and the radiant smile on your face couldn’t...

I've noticed that for some reason my Ancient Blue or Lovat Blue hose fit tighter than any other color regardless of style or maker. I don't know if there is something inherently different about...

I won't be there this year, but are the games always this weekend? My Son-in-Law will be posted in San Antonio later this Spring and I expect my wife and I will be visiting several times a year, so...

I wish I'd seen this a little earlier. Pubs are so plentiful in the Portland/Vancouver area that you'd be hard pressed not to find a good one! If you have time and see this before you leave the...

email sent. Oh boy!

I've read all the books, I've seen the first couple seasons of the show, and I've met Diana Gabaldon and heard her talk about her books and how she wrote them. They are not history and were never...

We're blessed with a number of potential places, now we just have to get the participants.

I had to quit playing for a while and it's an up hill battle getting my chops back, especially since I...

Okay. Last year I tried to get a Kilt Night going here in Battle Ground. I know there are a couple of kilties here but maybe they're not Xmarkers. Rick Y and his wife, and my wife and I had a...

I don't think we're down on it. Some of our traditionalists maybe but not all of us by any means. I dress that way frequently at home and even at the local pub during the week. I think it's just...

BIG BUMP!! Tartan Thirsty First Thursday is coming up fast! This coming Thursday is June first. Weather should be good and the days are getting longer, so come on out. Hope to see some of you at...

Next Thursday, April 6th, is both National Tartan and Thirsty First Thursday! Vancouver and Portland Rabble are invited to join me at 7:30 at Northwood Public House in Battle Ground for some good...

Good job! Not verbose but it get's the point across! Makes me want to join in.

My schedules kind of goofy but I'm always up for a brew or a few.

Good job! I used to let my hair grow long and then donate it to Locks Of Love but, while I wear my hair short these days, I don't know that I'm brave enough to go the shave pate route. It's getting...

Which day and where do you plan to start?

a guest on a fishing trip was having a hard time bringing in a fish. Every time he got a fish to the bank it would get loose. The guide pointed out he was breaking a basic rule saying "Your fish is...

Thirsty First Thursday is coming up again. Northwood Pub in Battle Ground at 7:30 on March 2nd. Come on out for good food, a good pint, and some good craic!

Next Thursday is February 2nd and time for another installment of Tartan Thirsty First Thursday at Northwood Pub in Battle Ground. I'll be there at 7:30. Come join me if you can.

There are still a few originals here, and I wonder about what happened to some of the others, like Graham from Tasmania.

That's really kind of weird. they're showing great pipes (assembled all wrong), small pipes, and a practice chanter. I wonder if it's a case of somebody that doesn't have a clue about what they're...

Jimmy Carbomb! Where you been? It's been so long I wasn't sure you were still here! Thanks to Hank for getting this started, to Steve for keeping it going, and to all the Rabble who make it what...

Not to be nit-picking, but you've only had one Birthday! Every other one has just been an anniversary celebration of your original Birthday! :lol:

Happy Birthday Steve, and thanks for keeping...

I'm glad I misunderstood this. I was trying to figure out what kind of a special sporran you would need to hunt skunks. Maybe a built in gas mask and bandoleer of tomato juice cans? :lol:

Well plaid, Good Sir!

That's not a pun, it's a shaggy dog story!:lol:
